Bath repair at your home in CV36

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for holes from dropped items and a kit repair that didn’t last, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.

What you’ll pay

Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For anyone letting property in or around CV36, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in CV36

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you.

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

CV36: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How much does bath repair cost in CV36?

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

Do you cover the entire of Warwickshire?

Everywhere in the UK, CV36 included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
